Walk the dog
The dog stops at every lamppost, turns without asking and pulls its own way. For a child who likes to be in charge, the leash becomes a daily negotiation. The visuals below split clearly who decides what.

About this visual support
Plenty of children can handle the idea of a walk but not the dog at the other end of the leash. The dog does dog things: pauses for an interesting smell, veers toward another dog, sits down without warning. It feels like being ignored, even though it's the dog doing the ignoring. The frustration then lands on you, or on the leash.
Pictures help by making the roles visible before you head out. This card means the dog gets to sniff here. This one means the child picks the direction. This one means we wait until the dog is finished. Once expectations are sorted in advance, each stop isn't a failure but part of the deal.
Let the child hold a card showing the next step, giving them something concrete to focus on between pauses. In Routined you can build the dog walk as a short sequence: clip leash, walk, let dog sniff, head home, and let the child move forward through the chain.
